Overseas Crock Pot - 1 Sherry's Favorite Crock Pot Chicken

Crock Pots - While living overseas, I had no oven. I bought a very (very) cheap crock pot, and made many crock pot meals which otherwise would have required a broiler or oven. Here is one of them.

Sherry's Favorite Crock Pot Chicken

~1 frying chicken, cut up
~Salt & pepper
~1 can cream of mushroom soup
~1/2 cup sauterne or sherry
~2 tbl. butter or margarine, melted
~2 tbl. dry Italian salad dressing mix (or make your own)
~2 (3 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, cut in cubes (or local similar cream cheese)
~ 1 tbl. onion, chopped

Wash chicken and pat dry.
Brush with butter.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place in crock pot.
Sprinkle with dry salad mix (or spices).
Cover and cook on low for several hours.
About 3/4 hour before serving, mix soup, cream cheese, wine, and onion in bowl; stir well.
Pour over chicken in pot.
Cover and cook for 30 minutes on low.
